CROSSLINKABLE COMPOSITION CROSSLINKABLE WITH A LATENT BASE CATALYST

摘要

The present invention relates to a crosslinkable composition comprising at least one crosslinkable component crosslinkable by a latent base crosslinking catalyst comprising a substituted carbonate salt according to formula 1 wherein X+ represents a cation and wherein R is hydrogen, alkyl, aryl or aralkyl group, and wherein the crosslinkable composition comprises 0.1 - 10 wt%, preferably 0.1-5, more preferably 0.2-3 and most preferably 0.5-1.5 wt% water (relative to total weight of the crosslinkable composition). The invention further relates to a coating composition comprising the crosslinkable composition according to the invention, a novel catalyst composition and to the use of said catalyst composition according to the invention as a latent base crosslinking catalyst in coating compositions, preferably in RMA crosslinkable compositions.
